You may have noticed that hardly a post on this blog goes by without some sort of beautiful nature photo being included. I’ve been doing this for years.
The source of most of my photos has been Wikimedia Commons, the media archive behind Wikipedia. Wikimedia Commons is a treasure trove of photographs and other media, organized into a hierarchical structure of categories, and all published under licenses that permit reuse. The instructions above send you to one of my favorite categories (Landscapes by Country) and show you one way of exploring all the riches there.
Here are some examples of what you might find on a journey through that and other categories:
